I took a different approach to watching the file. I had a servlet simply
reload it when a parameter on a url was called. The servlet then simply did:
URL url = Loader.getResource("log4j.xml");
DOMConfigurator.configure(url);
Works fine for me. Not exceptions or errors and works like a charm.

Subject: Changing log level without restarting app server
Hey everyone,
I have a J2EE app using EJB 2.1, Struts 1 and Hibernate, running on JBoss 4.2.3
and want to be able to modify various properties in log4j.properties without
having to restart the app server, e.g. Change the log level from info to debug.
What's the best way to get this set up?Should it be done in a servlet upon
application startup? I've googled this but haven't found a definitive best
practice solution. I've tried configure and watch but it throws exceptions when
I change the log level and save the file..
Thanks for any help!
